Utrechtsestraat, Arnhem
NeighbourhoodThis rental apartment on Betuwestraat sits in the heart of Arnhem, where the city buzzes right outside your door. With an A+ energy label, it's unusually efficient for a home built in 1885, so heating costs should be pleasantly low. At €1,519 per month, the rent is 18% above the neighbourhood average, but the flat is also 77% smaller than the typical home in the area, so the price per square metre is in line with what you'd expect for a well-located, modernised apartment. For context, the average rent for apartments in Arnhem sits at €1,288.
The neighbourhood Utrechtsestraat is a dense, urban pocket with 1,285 residents, mostly young adults, 44% are between 25 and 45, and 27% are 15 to 25. Over 60% of households are single-person, and only 4% have children. One resident describes it as a "Beautiful neighbourhood close to the finest amenities," adding: "I've only just moved in, but it's close to the station, the supermarket, a large park, and a 1-minute walk to my university." The area scores an 8.5 out of 10 from that single review. With 159 reported crimes, it's a busy city centre, typical for a very strongly urbanised area (address density 2,857 per km²).
For your morning coffee or a quick shop, AH to go is just around the corner, and SPAR is a couple of streets away. Jumbo and Lidl are a five-minute walk, and Albert Heijn is ten minutes away.

About Betuwestraat 1-1, Arnhem
The rent is 18% above the neighbourhood average of €1,288, but the flat is also much smaller than average (57 m² vs 243 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €26.65, which is high compared to the neighbourhood average of €13.98 per m². However, the A+ energy label and central location justify a premium. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value efficiency and being in the thick of things.
Utrechtsestraat is a very urban, young neighbourhood. Most residents are single and between 25 and 45. It's close to the train station, supermarkets, a large park, and the university, one resident says it's a one-minute walk to their university. The area is dense and lively, with plenty of restaurants and a library nearby.
The flat has an A+ energy label, which is excellent, especially for a building from 1885. That means you can expect low heating costs and a comfortable indoor climate. The label is far above the neighbourhood average, where most homes are likely older and less efficient.
The train station is 0.5 km away, about a five-minute walk. That makes it very convenient for commuting or day trips.
There are several supermarkets within walking distance: AH to go is 197 m away, SPAR is 332 m, Jumbo is 493 m, Lidl is 536 m, and Albert Heijn is 675 m. So you have plenty of options for daily shopping, from quick grabs to full weekly shops.
Betuwestraat is in the city centre, so it's busy and lively. The neighbourhood has a very high address density (2,857 per km²) and a mix of shops, restaurants, and services. If you prefer peace and quiet, this might not be the spot, but if you like being in the middle of everything, it's ideal.
